A photograph of a darshan on a stage before a painted banyan-tree and waterfall backdrop. A long-haired man in an orange saffron robe with a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gilded golden throne with red cushions, and appears to be the a person, given the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala. Around him, devotees line up: a man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands at the throne, a monk in orange robes stands at the left beside a man in white with an orange shawl, and several women in white saris with gold borders and one in a green floral sari stand in a row, some with hands folded.
